• When you upload a receipt to abacus it would be great to port in the information from the receipt to the text fields.
• It would be good to have a more automated way for Abacus to integrate in with other payroll systems.
• It would be nice to have more levels of permissions, e.g. manager level, administer level and employee level.

• It would be nice to switch between databases without having to logout and login.
• When entering codes (like for a journal entry) it doesn't auto-search/fill the account numbers...you have to hit the dropdown and scroll for the number.
• You can't post cash receipts without first having an invoice, which can slow down your processing.

• Makes expenses very transparent and easy to approve. Receipt uploaded, time, who was involved, where (geolocating), and under what category the expense and reimbursement should be pulled from (customer service, sales, product, engineering teams, etc.).
• No negatives! Other than random bugs, this app worked amazing for our company!

• Abila has streamlined and allowed more tasks to be automated maximizing the efficiency of staff so more staff is not needed.
• The Maintenance and Support annual fee is a bit expensive and not a very good return especially for the amount of features that are updated from year to year. I don't use support a lot since our systems are pretty efficient so hence I don't think the annual M&S is justifiable.
• Abila's importing feature allows integration to many different systems which makes Abila very flexible allowing costs to be saved if the owner of the Abila system switches between vendors.
